THE LOCATION
The location can not get any better. Directly across the street is West Side County Park, which has a jungle gym for kids, public restrooms, picnic tables, grills, free parking, and lake access with a huge beach. This beach is known for rock hunting in the early spring. All of this while only being a short drive to Saugatuck and South Haven.

Cute Cottage

We had a lovely stay in the cottage. The beach was within walking distance and town was just a short drive. We would definitely stay again.

We had a relaxing stay at this studio type cottage. Easy access to Lake Michigan across the street and through the park. We especially enjoyed the spacious screened porch for reading. Perfect for a long weekend or week, limited only by the small kitchen and small shower/bath. Short drive to Douglas/Saugatuk restaurants and Grand Rapids attractions.

weekend getaway

This turned out to be a fantastic location for us--visits to Saugatuck Dunes state park, to Holland, and a nice neighborhood for a morning run. The cottage was charming and we loved the screen porch for evening relaxing time.

A quiet cozy cottage by the lake

My husband and I needed a getaway from reality and this place was perfect. We were able to shop, enjoy some great food and relax on the beach. (all minutes away) Westside County Park is awesome and I even found some sea glass. Loved our stay and would definitely stay again!

Quiet Cottage by the Lake

The best part about this cottage is it's central location. I loved being able to walk to Westside County park and go down to the beach. The cottage is also close to South Haven, Glenn, Fennville, and Saugatuck. There are lots of beaches, antique stores, and restaurants within I0-15 minutes by car. It's a great place to kick back and relax.

Very nice stay

Only a short distance to county park with Lake Michigan's beautiful sugar sand beach. A cute small cottage, nice and clean. Good size for 2 people. The owner was friendly and showed us inside. There is no stove, but has a grill and microwave. We enjoyed it.

Adorable cottage in a great neighborhood

This cottage is bright, clean and welcoming. The bed is super comfy with high quality bedding and pillows. We loved sitting on the porch with the cute lights both day and night. It's very close to a gorgeous beach. We loved everything about the Lakeside Cottage except the tiny shower, 4 cup coffeemaker, and the very narrow driveway. I was disappointed with the very cheap paper products so I would suggest bringing your own. We would gladly stay there again.

good porch

Spent most of the time on the nice screened in porch. Most people opt for a "cabin" rental for privacy, but there are several close neighbors. There is no clothes closet. Big drop off in floor separates the living area in half. Bed sinks in to the middle of matress. Must wait a while for water to get hot again after first person showers. Bathroom door hits toilet to enter. Kitchen facilities minimal at best. No place is perfect, but just want to be honest about shortcomings. Location is great - across from nice park and 1,000 steps down to beach.

Nice but tiny

The place is tiny with a big step up/down from the bedroom/livingroom space the I fell off of in the night. Wish it had been better equipped. 2 coffee pots but no coffee. Dishwasher detergent but no dishwasher. Laundry detergent but no washer/dryer. No kleenex. Hand soap was empty. Just stuff like that which required a trip to the store. But the location was great, the screened in porch wonderful, and it was cozy and cute.

Overpriced for amenities

Detractors: The kitchen was the equivalent of a hotel kitchen: undercounter dorm-sized fridge & tiny coffee maker. Not having any way to cook food was costly (to eat out so often) and disappointing; my fault for assuming there would be cookware and some way to actually cook food. The sagging bed was not comfortable for two people. Tiny shower was smaller than our trailer’s, hot water lasted for one shower at a time. Positives: Location and proximity to lake access was great, park & beach were lovely, especially on non-weekend days (weekends were very busy and populated but overall, folks were respectful). Location close to Douglas & Saugatuck was nice, though they were also crowded on the weekends. Anne at Jacqua realtors was great; very accessible and responsive to questions & concerns; she was a pleasure to work with! I would absolutely recommend Jacqua management.
